3. Charges and Fees for Fee-Based Offerings
As a subscriber to one of the Fee-Based Offerings, you agree as follows:

A. You agree to pay, using a valid credit card (or other form of payment which we may accept from time to time), the fixed and periodic charges and fees (including joining fees, prepayment plan fees for multiple periods, if any such plans are offered, and the recurring monthly fees or multiple-period fees, as applicable) set forth by Weight Watchers, applicable taxes, and other charges and fees incurred in order to use or access the Fee-Based Offerings.

B. We reserve the right to increase charges and fees, or to institute new charges or fees at any time, upon advance notice communicated to you through a posting on the Website or such other means as we may deem appropriate from time to time (including electronic mail or conventional mail).

C. After your payment for your initial prepayment plan billing period (whether a standard/monthly plan or multiple-period plan), your membership will be updated to our recurring monthly plan for the product you have purchased, we will automatically charge your credit card or other account our standard monthly fee up to 15 days prior to the start of each renewal period, unless you cancel your subscription before you are charged for the relevant renewal period. Except in the case of a multiple period prepayment plan (such as a pre-paid 3 month plan period for instance), if any, or if you were eligible for a discounted rate but are no longer eligible for that rate, the renewal charge will be the same as the prior period's charge, unless we notify you in advance at the time of sign-up or prior to the beginning of the renewal period as described above. In the event we cannot charge your account, we reserve the right to discontinue or terminate your use of or access to the Fee-Based Offerings. If you purchased a multiple period prepayment plan, if any are offered, or if you were eligible for a discounted rate but are no longer eligible for that rate, your subscription will automatically be renewed at our standard subscription rates and for our standard period (usually monthly) at the start of the relevant renewal period. If you wish to purchase another prepayment plan for multiple periods and we are currently offering prepayment plans at such time, you must notify us before you are charged for the next subscription period (which may occur up to 15 days before the termination of your current prepayment plan).

D. All fixed and periodic charges and fees for our Fee-Based Offerings are quoted in Australian dollars and are inclusive of any applicable GST, except where otherwise stated.

E. In addition to the fees and charges set forth above, you are responsible for all charges and fees associated with signing up for, using and connecting to the Fee-Based Offerings and connecting to the Website, including without limitation all travel costs, telephone access lines (including long-distance charges, when applicable), Internet service provider fees, telephone, computer and printer equipment, sales taxes and any other fees and charges necessary to use or access the Fee-Based Offerings. In addition, because our billing system is based overseas, you may incur an additional charge from your financial institution for an international transaction on each payment you make for our Fee-Based Offerings. Furthermore, if you are a New Zealand resident, your credit card issuer may impose a foreign exchange transaction fee each time we charge you for our Fee-Based Offerings if the charge is made in Australian dollars.

F. For the purposes of your access to and use of the Fee-Based Offerings, including identification, billing and shipping, you agree to provide us with true, accurate and complete information as required by the subscription or sign up process to the Fee-Based Offerings ("Subscription Data"), including your legal name, address, telephone number, email address and applicable billing information (e.g., credit card number and expiration date), and to allow us to share your Subscription Data with third parties for the purpose of verifying the information you provide and billing your credit card or otherwise charging your account. You agree to maintain and promptly update the Subscription Data and any other information you provide to us, to keep it accurate at all times. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, if you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such is the case, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your user account or subscription and refuse any and all current or future use and/or access by you of any of the Fee-Based Offerings or the Website (or any portion thereof). You are obligated to check the "Account Settings" feature of the Website to determine whether your Subscription Data is current and accurate, and, if not, to correct or update your Subscription Data including your billing information. You agree not to register or subscribe for more than one account, create an account on behalf of someone else, or create a false or misleading identity on the Website.

If your registration or subscription is revoked for any reason, you agree not to register or subscribe again using another user name or through any other means. If we have reason to suspect, in our sole discretion, that your account has previously been terminated, we reserve the right to terminate any new accounts you have registered without any notice to you, or to exercise any other remedies available to us under this Subscription Agreement or by law.

G. Certain portions, components, content and features of the Website are only available to individuals who purchase a subscription to one of the Fee-Based Offerings. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and user account information. You must notify us immediately in the event of any known or suspected unauthorised use of your user account, or any known or suspected breach of security, including loss, theft, or unauthorised disclosure of your or anyone else's password or credit card information. In the event of a breach of security by you, you will remain liable for any unauthorised use of your subscription until you update your Subscription Data. If your credit card expires, is cancelled, is lost or is subject to use without your authorisation, access the Account Settings feature of the Website to update your Subscription Data. You are entirely responsible for any and all activities which occur under your user account. You are responsible for paying any amounts billed to your credit card by a third party which were not authorised by you. You are entirely responsible for any printed material you receive that allows you to use or access the Offline Services (for example, any Weight Watchers membership/access card that may be provided). You agree that such printed materials are for your personal, non-commercial use and are non-transferable.

D. If you cancel after you have already been charged for the next subscription period and you use or access the Fee-Based Offering during that next period, or you do not return to us any material that we reasonably request you return to us, you will be deemed not to have cancelled the subscription for that next period and therefore will not be entitled to a refund for that cancellation.

E. We may allow you to cancel your subscription with respect to the Offline Services portion only or the Internet Products portion only of your subscription. In this case, this Agreement would continue to apply to your access to or use of the Offline Services provided by Fortuity or Internet Products provided by us that continue as part of your subscription (with the term "Fee-Based Offering" applying only to the Offline Services or Internet Products, as applicable) and to your use and/or access of the Website.

If you cancel your contract within the cooling-off period, we will release you from all liabilities under the contract and, subject to the below, refund all monies paid by you.

(3) If we terminate your subscription (as opposed to you cancelling your subscription), other than due to your violation of this Agreement, prior to the end of a period for which you have incurred a charge, with the exception of any fixed upfront fee, we will refund any unused portion of such period on a pro rata basis.

(4) If you cancel your subscription and are entitled to a full refund, we reserve the right to charge a fee to cover the cost to us of any administrative or other services you may have used prior to your cancellation, to the extent permitted by law.
